Winterbells

You are here

It's winter. You are an adorable rabbit. Celestial bells begin to fall from the sky. What else could one do but begin to leap upon them, ascending higher and higher into the snowy arch of heaven?

Winterbells is spartanly simple, wherein gameplay consists of a single click and then gentle, back and forth motions of the mouse to direct your tiny lapin avatar from bell to bell, each jump taking you higher. The bells disappear as you utilize them, so you have to keep moving onward, much like an unbearably cute shark.

The occasional bird provides alternate landing surfaces and extra points, but mostly you'll keep playing for the vaguely Christmas-hymn-ish music and the sweet "ting" as Bunny hits another bell. The game doesn't seem to have an end, but I've only managed to get up to about 30 000 points - perhaps at some point you do pierce the diamonded vault of the sky and God comes forth to offer you lettuce and a carrot.

Is there a Sasquatch with a big spiked club to smack the rabbit with? Thats what I'm lookin' for!

There are Bunny Time Events, in which you see a series of bunnies being pressed on the screen and you have to copy them using the bunnies on your controller. Or you could just bunny mash frantically and hope for the best.

This is one of those games where you can't help but blame yourself when you finally fall (aka the best type of games). No cheap tricks by the computer or anything, just you and the mouse versus millions and millions of bells.
